The classic "I shall be that I shall be" (Ehyeh asher ehyeh / אהיה אשר אהיה)

This verse would remain unadulterated in my version of an e-prime Bible. It feels correct, and if one breaks e prime rules over something, I feel this seems a good reason!

Plus, as one poster pointed out, this phrase causes confusion, perhaps on purpose! (As in "How dare you try to pidgeonhole the creator!")
